One of our more visible efforts in the community is the Freddie
Mac Foundation, formed in 1991 specifically to turn our desire to help into concentrated
community action. As the flagship of Freddie Mac's philanthropy program, the
Foundation is dedicated to making home a place where children and families thrive. The Foundation's funding is focused on three areas: Stable Homes/Stable Families, Foster Care and Adoption, and Academic and Career Success.
Since its creation, the Freddie Mac Foundation has partnered with public and private
leaders and provided more than $250 million to nonprofits whose services help
strengthen and stabilize families and communities.
The Freddie Mac Foundation has raised public awareness on issues facing children and their families, and aggressively addressed them by supporting replicable programs with demonstrated results. Over the years, the Foundation has helped better the lives of more than 1.7 million children.
